Hughes Construction Company was contracted to install this design done by Mike Montgomery of Buyers Protection Group.  During a structural inspection it was discovered that the sill plate was not attached to the top of the foundation adequately causing the walls to bow inward, which in turn caused the cracks in the foundation wall. The steel angles installed act as an after market method of securing the foundation to the floor joist system above. The cracks in this foundation were injected with structural epoxy to prevent any further movement.
